WOYWW #203 and S'Pin Cushions!

Hello lovely and creative peep's who've popped over from the Stamping Ground linky party! And everyone else, too, of course. ;) Thanks, as always, to the ever fabulous Julia over at Stamping Ground for hostessing this snoop. So, you're here to look at my desk and maybe a few projects? Well, here you are:

Ain't she a beaut? :) I am so tickled pink! Finally one of my paper pads of Prima's new Divine line came in! And I promptly sat down and made like 12 cards with it! Well, they aren't finished at all yet, but they are all started. Here is a pic of some of my washi tapes, too...

They have expanded from one yellow bin to 3 now! :0 But they are so fun and easy to use! :)

There are 3 of the Divine Prima card bases I made, and the next is just a close-up shot of one of those.

I plan to put on more embellishments and some bakers twine in a super soft pink color and probably some bling or glitter or both! lol Another close-up:

I just love the papers in this line and I got the coordinating stamp set, too. Well, I *had* to, don'tcha know? The smaller images(like of the Victorian lady standing, pink strip, red chevron, etc.) are ATC bases from Paper Studio, just in at your local Hobby Lobby and on sale this week. You're welcome. ;)
Next are some fabric choices...

For what, you ask? For my new S'Pin Cushion creations! It's a pin cushion that you can spin the top off of...why would you do that? Because you can store your extra pins in the jar below, just super handy for when you need them. :)

Those are the 3 I mocked up the other day. I'm really pleased with them and how handy it will be to have all my extra pins so nearby, instead of in a drawer or box elsewhere, and so prettily displayed, too. Thinking of selling them, too. Anyone have any input or comments?
Well, I better get on with this and post it and link it and get to seeing some desks! Hope everyone is having a wonderful, creative and fantastic week. :)

I love the S'pin cushions, what a wonderful idea, and if you sold them you'd definitely have a customer here, we're always looking for wonderful pieces such as this to help make our sewing life a little easier!

As always your desk is full of creative bliss I dont know where to start, oh and ah over the paper & supplies, no wonder you were on fire with creating cards that is one great collection. Then those storage pin cushions are just devine. Yes sell them, maybe through your church, family & friends. I especially love the black and red one, sort of raunchy and elegant. What a fab collection of Washi tape you have I think I have about 3 or 4 rolls, never did get it that stuff.

wow you have been busy and I caI=n see why you have made so many cards the papers are gorgeous what wonderful colours and designs a feast for the eyes they are ace .I love your pin cushions they are so sweet i would buy one they are excellent my favourite is the blue floral one ,they will go like hot cakes I'm also envious of that super washi tape stash so many fab designs you have there. love the post love the photos have a great weekAndrea #55

missed getting around last week so you were top on my list this week...I have added your name to my ATC swaps so be ready! I am doing better but wish this weather would level out...I am so tired of cold one day hot the next! Have a great week and thanks for stopping by my desk and commenting. I like that! Vickie #41

Oh my goodness, it is DANGEROUS looking at your pictures. First of all I loved being able to peek into your world. What a beautiful world it is, I love all the colors! I started thinking I'd love to make that, or I should do that, and next thing you know I am off track, thinking of a new project. I HAVE to stick with my pattern I am working on. Mom is coming home today, so I won't have much time, but I'll keep trying. I want to thank you for mentioning the lecithin. I will go buy some today because I have to run to the grocery store and Walgreens to stock up on stuff for Mom's house. Thank you so much!!!!!! I'll let you know if in a week all my fat melts off :) Just kidding, but really wishing!! As always, your projects are lovely and so much fun to see, thanks for sharing.Hugs,Julie
